About Sony Xperia 5 III 5G

The Sony Xperia 5 III 5G presents a compact yet vibrant form factor, measuring 68 mm wide, 157 mm tall and just 8.2 mm thick while weighing in at 168 grams. Its 6.1‑inch AM‑OLED panel delivers a full‑HD+ resolution of 1080 by 2520 pixels, offering sharp colors and deep contrast typical of the technology. Powered by Android 11, the device is equipped with 8 GiB of RAM, providing ample memory for multitasking and app performance. A single SIM slot keeps the connectivity straightforward, and the 4500 mAh battery aims to support a full day of use despite the phone’s slender profile. Together, these specifications position the Xperia 5 III 5G as a refined option for users who value a high‑quality display and solid performance in a hand‑friendly size.

This variant

This Japanese carrier model (A103SO) brings 128 GB of storage to the Xperia 5 III 5G lineup.

Unlike the base model, which does not specify a storage capacity or carrier designation, this variant explicitly lists 128 GB and the A103SO model number.

Among the other JP‑listed versions, the XQ‑BQ42 model offers 256 GB, while the SOG05 and SO‑53B models also provide 128 GB but carry different model identifiers; the APAC and NA variants differ further in region and storage.
